How I Used AI to Save 10 Hours a Week

Time is one of our most precious resources, yet it always seems to slip through our fingers, especially for busy mums balancing careers, family, and personal goals. As someone who juggles multiple roles, I often found myself overwhelmed with tasks that seemed endless. That is, until I discovered how to leverage AI to reclaim my time—and my peace of mind.

Here’s how I used AI to save 10 hours a week, and how you can too.

1. Streamlining Daily Tasks

Managing repetitive tasks was eating away at my schedule. From responding to emails to scheduling meetings, these small but frequent activities consumed hours each week. I started using AI tools like Grammarly and ChatGPT to draft, edit, and respond to emails efficiently. Tools like Calendly automated my scheduling process, eliminating the back-and-forth of finding a mutually available time.

Result: I saved at least 2 hours a week simply by automating these daily activities.

2. Creating Content in Minutes

As a mumpreneur, creating engaging content is essential for my business. Writing blogs, social media posts, and newsletters used to take up a significant portion of my week. AI tools such as Canva’s Magic Write and Copy.ai became my creative assistants, helping me draft ideas, captions, and visuals in record time.

I could focus on refining my message and adding my personal touch instead of starting from scratch, saving another 3 hours weekly.

3. Managing Household Chores

Who says AI is only for business? Apps like Tody and Alexa helped me organize my household chores and set reminders for grocery shopping, laundry, and meal planning. With these systems in place, I no longer spent hours each weekend organizing my family’s week.

Result: I reclaimed an additional 2 hours every week to spend with my family.

4. Upskilling with AI-Powered Learning

I also embraced AI tools to learn smarter ways of managing my life and business. Platforms like Udemy and LinkedIn Learning offered personalized recommendations based on my goals. With AI curating content for me, I didn’t waste time sifting through irrelevant courses or tutorials.

Bonus: This newfound knowledge helped me streamline even more areas of my life, giving me an edge as a mumpreneur.

5. Delegating and Simplifying Decisions

Decision fatigue is real. Tools like Notion AI and Trello helped me delegate tasks to my team and stay on top of my projects without constant oversight. Meanwhile, AI tools like Mealime took the stress out of planning healthy meals, offering tailored suggestions for my family’s preferences.

These tools saved me 3 more hours weekly, giving me the mental clarity I needed to focus on bigger goals.

The Power of AI for Mums

AI isn’t just for tech experts—it’s for anyone ready to take control of their time. By integrating AI into my daily life, I found a balance I never thought possible. I now have 10 extra hours a week to spend on the things that truly matter: quality time with my family, pursuing my passions, and growing my business.

If you’re feeling stretched too thin, I encourage you to explore AI. Start small, and you might be surprised by how much time you can reclaim.
